FLE teacher graduated from the Alliance française Bruxelles-Europe. I taught in Laos (1 year in a local school) in Peru (1 year in a college and in a French alliance), in Moscow (2 years in a private language school), in Brussels (6 month in an association that delivers courses to newcomers and the F9 for private and group lessons at the ULB).
The type of teaching that I favor is based on active pedagogy, constant interaction of the learner with his teacher and his environment, a cultural exchange and a clear and precise understanding of the objectives to be achieved.
To apply this practice I use a lot: authentic documents (radio and TV programs, articles, reports, songs, testimonials, ...), the role play (theatrical exercises), games are a founding element of my teaching (playful and recreational approach of the language), the debates (the experience and the personal history being the raw material to animate them), reading (books and comics: phonetics), the grammatical exercises in adequacy with the theme ( didactics of FLE and grammatical methodology)

My courses are for those who want or need to know French for one reason or another. The meetings are adapted to the needs, the time, the desires of each one. You define the objective: my job is to enable you to reach it as quickly and as naturally as possible. The material and method correspond to your needs. Whether your motivation is professional, cultural, academic, tourist, whatever your level, I propose a solution.

My name is Huyen and I have held a diploma in teaching French (foreign language - FLE) since 2012 from the Higher Institute of Translators and Interpreters (now attached to the Free University of Brussels). Former interpreter at the Lille High Court, I am now a teacher.

I offer French lessons for children. I know that learning a new language can be intimidating at first, and improving is quite a challenge. However, everyone learns in their own way and at their own pace. This is why the course content and teaching method will change from one student to another. The lessons will be developed and adapted according to the student's level but also their needs and learning style. During lessons, I will emphasize active learning and try to interact with the student as much as possible.

With your goals in mind, let's work together so you can achieve the fluency you need to communicate with more confidence!

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

I have good knowledge of learning disorders (dyslexia, dyscalculia, disorthography, dyspraxia) and adapt easily to your expectations.

I can offer conversation classes at very different levels, from informal discussions with idiomatic expressions to business negotiation dialogues.

As for the pronunciation of French, it is a real challenge because written French is often very different from its articulation.

The verbo-tonal method that I use, and which is often used by speech therapists, is particularly suitable for correcting French pronunciation for those of you who are not native French speakers, but also for native French speakers who wish to get rid of an accent.

We will work on the sounds of the language integrated into the sentence, the rhythm, the intonation and considered as a living and evolving system.

This method is very effective. You will see your progress very quickly and your self-confidence will allow you to overcome any reluctance you may have had before to express yourself in public. For others, having a more neutral pronunciation in French can be a significant asset professionally.

Spelling problems? Poor language skills? Does studying the rules seem tedious or even boring to you? That's understandable, but this might change your mind. Retired translator/journalist, I help you in the systematic study of grammar, with exercises, explanations and homework. Oral and written communication based on practice and exercises.
Follow-up of tutoring provided and detailed review of unmastered material.
Correction of pronunciation if necessary.
Classes can be given in English or Italian if necessary.
No very young children.

Bonjour!

My name is Anastasia, I am a 24 years old French native and I am here to help you improve your French skills. I have been teaching students of various levels from all around the world for over 5 years. I have helped students prepare for French exams like the DELF, as well as those who are planning to move to a French-speaking country and need real-life language skills.

I understand the challenges of learning a language, having learned two languages myself: English and Portuguese, and plan to learn more. I have faced difficulties, hit walls, and overcome them, and I believe that my experience as a language learner makes me a well-rounded teacher. However, I do not claim to know everything about teaching, as I am constantly learning.

I tailor my teaching method to best suit the needs of my students. I use interactive resources such as images, videos, and texts to help my students learn effectively.

For beginners, I recommend trying out the Pimsleur method, which is a 30-minute audio lesson based on gradual interval recall. This method reviews learned vocabulary at increasingly longer intervals and has been used by the CIA. If you are interested, we can discuss how to use this method together.

I offer French lessons remotely through Skype, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams or at the students place. When the lesson is online, I use a platform that allows us to see and modify documents, images, and videos in real-time, which is very useful.

I would be happy to help you on your French learning journey.

I offer my services to help your children achieve their academic goals, whether it is for the little ones who are discovering reading and writing, or for teenagers in the middle of preparing for exams. I also have experience with university students who needed a helping hand in certain subjects.
Patient and attentive, I adapt to the specific needs of each student, offering them personalized support to help them progress at their own pace and with confidence.
In terms of education, I followed a Preparatory Class for the Grandes Écoles in France (literature, philosophy, history, geography and languages), and obtained a bachelor's degree in English Language, Literature and Civilization. I then continued with a master's degree in British and American translation and civilization. I had the chance to work for two years at the Lycée Français Jean Monnet in Brussels, where I acquired solid experience with students of all ages and a good understanding of the expectations of the school system.
I would be happy to discuss this with you and see how I can contribute to its success.

The courses are aimed at high school students, literature students, and adults learning French (FLE). Through courses tailored to their needs, learners will consolidate their French skills, either from a strictly linguistic or literary perspective.

As for the language, we will be able to work on different aspects: grammar, conjugation, syntax rules, written and oral expression.

More experienced learners, in rhetoric and at university, will be able to consolidate their skills in written expression and literary analysis.

It is about progressing realistically and at the learner's own pace, and developing methods that allow for long-term improvement.

I am Caroline, I have a Master's degree in Translation. I have a passion for languages and teaching and I am looking forward to helping you learn French! Together we can practice spoken French to get you to the next level, or have more classic lessons to improve the basics!

I teach French to all levels. We can have standard lessons with grammar, listening, speaking, reading and writing, as well as conversational classes where we will focus on speaking and pronunciation.
Just let me know what your needs are and I will make sure to teach you French in the most efficient way!

I offer an interactive method, tailored to your needs. We will progress according to your level. Do you want to improve your speaking skills? I offer role-playing exercises.
Do you want to feel more confident in your conversations at work or at the café? We'll simulate conversations in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere. If you'd prefer to focus on specific areas of weakness, such as grammar or conjugation, we'll review the essential rules of the French language together.

I am a Spanish Erasmus student currently living in Brussels. I offer Spanish and English lessons for all ages and levels, focusing on conversation, vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation.

As a native Spanish speaker with experience teaching languages and working with children, I can adapt my lessons to each student’s needs and learning pace.

My classes are friendly, practical and interactive, helping students gain confidence while learning in a relaxed environment.

I also offer English conversation practice and school support.
